Farage treading on very thin ice with his remarks about Mark Carney.

Thanks for the heads up, g-s. Should be interesting, as I've not noticed much sense of humour from ex-LBC presenter JH-B so far, but plenty of outrage (faux or not). By the way, Paul Merton seems to have been coasting for a long time on this show, with a noticeable lack of spark compared to how he used to be.

You're lucky to have been away! A handful of us 'old guard' struggle on, hoping to have a laugh, any attempt at humour being met with boot-faced silence or reminders to stay on topic.
I'm tempted to go over to the talkRADIO thread and slag off Iain Lee, just like the old days on here. That was always good for a laugh. ![]() ....mind you some of the newer ones can hold their own.

Tell you something. Cannot wait for the referendum to be done, no matter the result.
When we have Brexit The Movie then things have gone very surreal. BTW did you see JOB on Newsnight sporting a rather smarts it? |

This is an important story and is rightly being covered. It would be the same if Cameron had lied about anyone under the protection of parliamentary privellege. Not every story about Muslims is newsworthy.

The guy is a dinosaur from the 1980s.....making products that consume less power are the future for everyone. LED bulbs, new style kettles that boil less water, Gtech vacuum cleaner which can be powered by rechargeable batteries......
He is entertaining in an idiotic way, this is the man who wrote fluff about pop stars for years... now he's a mouthpiece on a radio station.... Ferrari is entertaining at times in his show, but that is because of his excellent sense of humour, quick wit, his funny opinionated asides and some of the stingers of questions and responses he gives callers and guests. He didn't "write fluff for years". He was the sub-editor of The Sun for most of the time he was working at the paper and although he did write for The Sun's infamous Bizarre column for a while, that doesn't make him a bad person of have any bearing or relevance to his broadcasting abilities. Ferrari is not "a mouthpiece". He says what he thinks and admits when he is wrong. If you want mouthpieces, perhaps you'd better try a different station because you're certainly not getting one on LBC from 7am-10am. You're getting a stand up man with honest opinions who stands by what he says but also isn't afraid to alter his views if convinced to. I find your suggestion that he "talks fluff" very ironic and hypocritical considering many of your own posts. Quote:
And yet NF claimed for almost an hour, it wasn't as severe as a Labour MP and Labour councillors criticising the state of Israel..........
Now imagine if this was Jeremy Corbyn saying what Cameron said and Michael Fabricant making anti Israel comments....NF would foam at the mouth.... 20 Labour councillors being suspended is not a misunderstanding. That's a serious problem. Plus, Jeremy Corbyn has felt the need to launch a full investigation, which I think itself highlights the deep-rooted prejudices within the Labour party which are gradually being outed. I think Nick was right here, whilst I think the PM is a disgrace for describing the Imam in that way, the anti-Semitism issue is far more widespread across Labour and also potentially far more electorally damaging. |

Still no reference to Ken L this morning. I wonder if he will be back after the EU Referendum. His name and details are still on the website, where I found ....
Friday 20th November 2015 It's been an eventful week for Ken Livingstone and tomorrow morning you can hear his side of the story in full at 10am on LBC. Anyone remember what he said / did at that time? |

Also, callers seem to be getting even less airtime than usual. One poor woman was interrupted with a 'joke' after approximately 4 words, and never did get to make her actual point. DM and MC just talked and talked, before 'having to move on'! |

when andrew castle was sacked the first time, i thought lbc was wrong, but now after listening to his return i think that man who fired him was right. andrew castle is very boring and if i may say so he does not come across the airwaves as an intelligent man. rather the opposite in fact. he fumbles his way through the show he presents, buttering callers and guests up not end. he is actually useless a very lucky to have that job but i dont think he will have it by the end of the year. he is so boring i switched him off. will not listen again to him.
